Product Information
Full details
The Puma Deviate Nitro 4 Trainers are designed for adult male runners seeking enhanced propulsion and speed during daily training and speed sessions on asphalt. Key benefits include exceptional energy return from NITRO(TM) foam and a propulsive feel from the PWRPLATE carbon plate, all within a lightweight 250g construction. A potential consideration is that these neutral shoes are optimized for speed training, which may offer a firmer ride than shoes designed purely for long-distance comfort.

FAQs
Who is the Puma Deviate Nitro 4 designed for?
These trainers are designed for adult male runners seeking speed and efficiency, particularly for daily training and speed sessions on asphalt. They are best suited for neutral runners.
What is the main technology that provides propulsion?
The primary propulsion technology is the PWRPLATE, a carbon plate integrated into the midsole, designed to offer flexibility and a propulsive feel throughout the stride.
How does the NITRO(TM) foam contribute to the shoe's performance?
NITRO(TM) foam provides maximum cushioning with high responsiveness, ensuring a lightweight feel and excellent energy return with every step.
What is the weight of the Puma Deviate Nitro 4?
The trainers are very lightweight, weighing approximately 250 grams.
What type of surface are these shoes best suited for?
They are specifically designed and optimized for running on asphalt and other hard, paved road surfaces.
What is the drop of the shoe?

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct UK size. Try wearing them with your usual running socks. Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring an even fit across the top of the foot.
Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time
The midsole foam may naturally compress slightly with significant mileage. Ensure the shoes are clean and free of debris that might affect performance. Consistent use on appropriate surfaces will maintain their intended feel.
Slipping on wet surfaces
The outsole is designed for optimal grip on dry asphalt. Be cautious when running on wet or slippery surfaces, as grip may be reduced. Ensure the outsole is free from mud or debris.
